Turbo Strength Mode, aka Defense-Protocol X795, is Maxwell McGrath and Steel's second Turbo Mode. This mode allows Max the power of super strength in which he can easily lift cars, and can fight considerably powerful opponents. It is also approximately three times bigger than Base Mode, and can throw Turbo punches. It first appeared in Come Together Part One.
History[]
Season 1[]
Come Together Part One[]
Steel activates "Defense-Protocol X795", which Maxwell nicknames as Turbo Strength Mode, in order to fight Fire Elementor. Max takes a beating, but assures to the villainous Ultralink that his suit was fireproof, of which he replies that he would simply have to rip him off from his "shell". Fire delivers a powerful blow at Max and throws him at the wall, causing Turbo Strength Mode to be deactivated.
Come Together Part Two[]
During a training session, Max activates Turbo Strength Mode to combat Berto's robots. He successfully destroys one, until Max sends out a small army that overwhelms McGrath.
After Earth and Fire Elementors attack Copper Canyon. Max links up with Steel and activates Turbo Strength Mode. He fights against Earth, using his super strength to throw the Ultralink to a building. After quickly recovering, Earth and the hero run towards each other, preparing to clash. As their fists collide, a large T.U.R.B.O. energy is released, dismembering the Ultralink's arm. Max uses Earth's arm to punch him, throwing him across the city. He is attacked by Fire, but Max strikes back with Earth's arm.
Earth attacks Ferrus and Molly, but Max intervenes. Steel willingly deactivates Turbo Strength Mode to use the Turborang to stop Fire.
Come Together Part Three[]
After infiltrating THI's headquarters and finding Max, Steel frees him and activates Turbo Strength Mode. He punches Miles, who is unfazed by his power. He shoots Max with an energy ray, causing him to fall from the top of the THI building. Miles approaches Max to fight him, while the hero pulls a pole from from the streets and attacks him after activating Turbo Flight Mode. After Miles throws a police car at Max, he activates Turbo Strength Mode, but he is easily overwhelmed by the villain. Max has the idea of overloading Dread with T.U.R.B.O. energy. He runs towards the villain and then activates Turbo Flight Mode.
Cleaning House[]
During a training simulation, Max activates Turbo Strength Mode to deal with a trio of ninjas. After defeating them, a sewer monster emerges and easily subdues them. He is defeated by the creature and the simulation ends, with Ferrus scolding them for their defeat.
Max and Steel later activate Turbo Strength Mode to deal with a mutated Tytus, but they are easily subdued by his strength. They are about to be thrown in a pool of radioactive waste, until Steel unlinks from Max's chest and attacks him. With the villain disoriented, Max delivers the finishing blow, defeating him.
Secret Identity Crisis[]
While dealing with a duo of thieves, Max activates Turbo Strength Mode to lift their car. He accidentally slides their car across the ground, damaging the police car. He then activates Turbo Flight Mode and leaves.
After supposedly uncovering Max Steel's secret identity, Miles intercepts a school bus during a trip. Max activates Turbo Strength Mode to fight him and attempts to overload him like he did last time, but Miles has upgraded his armor. McGrath decides to attack from the distance, throwing giant rocks at the villain. Steel spots various rocks in the top of a mountain, and asks Max to throw him at them. After doing so, the rocks fall at Dread, depowering him and allowing Max to deliver a powerful blow.

In an attempt of finding hostages, Max and Team Turbo invade an abandoned warehouse, only to realize it was a trap. As energy cubes emerge from the ground, Max activates Turbo Strength Mode. However, the cubes drain his power, causing him to faint and return to his Turbo Base Mode.
Abilities[]
When Max transforms into Turbo Strength Mode, he becomes bigger, stronger, and more armored than other modes, with enough strength to easily lift a semi-truck or destroy a building with a single blow. Max’s strength is increased exponentially, only limited by the amount of Turbo Energy he generates. His size is also dramatically increased, growing as his strength does![1]
- Superhuman Strength: As its name suggests, this mode gifts Max with the ability of super strength. By focusing more T.U.R.B.O. energy, Max is capable of enhancing his power even further, as exemplified in Come Together Part Two. For example, Max was capable of knocking Earth Elementor's arm off, as well as throwing him at building with relative ease.
- Superhuman Durability: Max's body is protected by a large highly durable armor. According to the official website, it is capable of withstanding a nuclear blast.[2]
- Fire Resistance: According to Max in Come Together Part One, Turbo Strength Mode is fire proof.
- Turbo Punches: Max is capable of focusing T.U.R.B.O. energy into his fists.
- Enhanced Jumping: As exemplified in Secret Identity Crisis, Max is capable of jumping farther than an average individual in this mode.
- Enlargement: Using T.U.R.B.O Energy, Max can enlarge the suit, which was shown in Element of Surprise Part Two.
Weaknesses[]
- Limited Mobility and Agility: While Max's strength is increased exponentially, his mobility and agility are compromised.

Trivia[]
- According to Steel in Come Together Part One, Turbo Strength Mode is air conditioned. It is unknown if all the modes have this function.
- This is one of the most used modes alongside Turbo Base Mode, Turbo Speed Mode, Turbo Cannon Mode, and Turbo Flight Mode.
- In Supermania, the mode was temporarily renamed to Turbo Super Strength Mode and was modified to have purple shorts, an obvious nod toward Marvel's The Incredible Hulk.
- Instead of the normal more blue tint when cloned via Turbo Clone Mode, this Turbo Mode has more black on its armor when cloned.
- Turbo Strength Mode is one of the three modes to temporarily feature an open section at the mouth alongside Turbo Base Mode and Turbo Flight Mode. The reasoning, according to Berto in The Wrath of Makino, is that citizens thought that Max was a robot.
- Additionally, several early concept artworks for the series depict Max with an open section at the mouth, suggesting that this design element was considered by the team from the series' early development stages.
- As of Team Turbo, this change was discarded.
- It was the last blue Turbo Mode to be used by Max as of Turbo-Charged.
- Turbo Strength Mode is the most cloned/replicated mode out of Max's arsenal by the villains.
- In Me, Myself, and Extroyer, Extroyer clones Max's Turbo Strength Mode to taint his image.
- In Dawn of Morphos, the titular villain steals Max's Turbo Strength Mode.
